Privacy Policy for stena.com
This policy aims to explain how our website stena.com collects and processes your information, what choices and rights you have, and how you can exercise these rights. This policy is written for our websites users.
We believe that the protection of personal data is important, and we strive to design our website with respect for the privacy of our users. Our starting point is not to process more personal data than necessary for the purpose, and to use the least integrity sensitive data as possible.
Personal data we collect and how they are used
Personal data are data relating to an identified or identifiable person. Personal data is processed to take requested actions such as answering questions or sending material. Personal data can also be used for direct marketing to recipients in their professional role, customer and market analyses, invitations to meetings and other professional contacts regarding our products and services.
When visiting the site and when downloading documents, we automatically process information that under certain circumstances may constitute personal data. This includes data about time, date, downloaded file, file size, volume of transferred data, browser, language settings, operating system, referral domain, and IP address. The purpose of processing this kind of information is to provide an interesting, safe and user-friendly website.
Legal basis
The legal basis for our processing of personal data is a legitimate interest in marketing our services and products, communicating with customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders as well as offering an interesting, safe and user-friendly website. In some cases, the legal reason is that the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil an agreement or to act at the request of the person who provided the personal data before an agreement is reached. In the case of cookies, the legal basis is the consent. Further information on this treatment can be found in the section on cookies and similar techniques below.
Shelf life
In general, we do not save personal data beyond what is necessary to fulfil the purpose of the treatment. We also delete personal information if you request that they be removed or if we find out that the personal data we process is out of date.
Transmission to third parties
Our starting point is not to disclose personal data to independent third parties unless it is necessary to fulfil our obligations under agreement or law. This is, for example, our suppliers in areas such as information security, IT, shipping and logistics, finance and marketing. If our company is included, or may be included, in a group, your data may also be shared with companies within the Group. We do not sell your personal information or allow any third party for other reasons to use personal information provided to us for their own purposes. Exceptions are certain technical information that, under special conditions, is shared with third parties as shown below.
Security
We have routines and procedures for managing your personal information safely. Only persons in our organization who need personal data to perform their duties should have access to them. Our security systems are designed to protect against intrusion, destruction, and other changes that could lead to privacy risks. The personal information provided via forms on our site is protected by encryption during transmission to our servers.
Transmission to non-EU/ESS countries
Normally, we only process personal data within the EU/EES. However, your personal data and technical information may in some situations be transferred to non-EU/EES recipients who have an adequate level of protection of personal data. Exceptionally, after having taken special security measures, personal data may also be transferred to non-EU/EES recipients who lack adequate level of protection of personal data.
Rights relating to personal data
You are entitled to access your personal data on request and without undue delay, to have your personal information corrected or deleted. You also have the right to restrict the processing of your personal information and to transfer your personal data to someone else. Finally, you are entitled to request that your personal information is not used for direct marketing. If you have questions or are not satisfied with how we treat your personal information, you are always welcome to contact us. There is also an opportunity to contact the competent supervisory authority.

This Privacy Policy is continually updated, and we recommend that you check regularly for any changes before using the site.

About sharing your information
We will not divulge, sell, transfer or otherwise disclose your information beyond the terms of this policy, unless we are required to do so to fulfil a legal obligation, or if we have consented to such disclosure.

About treating your information
We always strive to process your information within the EU/EES. However, your data may in some situations be transferred to and processed in a non-EU/EES country. We will then take all reasonable legal, technical and organizational measures to ensure that your information is handled securely and with an adequate level of protection comparable to and at the same level as the protection offered in the EU/EES.
